EDIT: I'm interested in how a free Palestine would play out in terms of what that would mean for women, gays, children, people of non-muslim religions, in terms of personal freedoms, etc. For the average citizen/denizen what would that look like?

They would definitely have some kind of mandatory military service instituted. I don't think they would ever trust their Zionist neighbors.

Culturally and economically speaking, it would be very similar to Lebanon or Syria in my opinion.

Take your pick lol. Israel did settle on their land in the first place. They'll probably be a good chunk of Palestinians on both sides of that question. Some who just want to finally enjoy peace and freedom. And some who want to make sure that what they've gone through for the past 70+ years never happens again. No one that is not Palestinian can fault either of those 2 opinions.

According to Israel, those terror words mean the same thing.

Kind of like how they had the gall to use the phrase 'deescalation through escalation'
